This will not affect me.I am able to do this because I live in Pennsylvania, in Allegheny County, where we have both a local court records system and a statewide judicial portal that gives us info on every eviction carried out in the Commonwealth.

Creating a holding company, LLC, business cards, websites, and all this other nonsense is like buying an indoor basketball court so you can pursue your dream of playing in the NBA . . . before you even try a pickup game to see if you are any good or like the sport.Buy an investment property and learn how to manage it.

This takes the ball out of your court and lets you focus simply on your part of the transaction.

Quote from @Mackenzie Lopez: This is a review based on my experience as well as court documents and speaking to other victims who had sound proof.

I hired Evictthemforme.com on April 5, and went to court with their referred attorney on June 17, 2024.

If you gain interest on the deposit, then you must pay that interest out to the tenant each year which adds to complexity and workload.Any bank should work.
